"FIXME: need fixing" ... Seems to work fine in MW 1.11.0. —alxndr (t) 00:12, 19 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

This might be the problem: it's relatively easy to have dupe entries in your catlinks box if you don't have a very strict tree-like hierarchy of categories. —alxndr (t) 20:17, 2 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Duplicate entries seem to occur when a page is included in multiple categories, if the categories are included in the same parent category. That is, a hierarchy something like this:
      parentcat
       /     \
      /       \
childcat1   childcat2
       \     /
        \   /
        page

Error in 1.12.0[edit]

Hello out there, I have turned in my php.ini display_erros=On and have on every single site Errors: In Skin.php on line 16?? in a foreach-loop it doesn't know one parameter. What's going on? (See error: 1. Install a wiki V.1.12.0, set $wgUseCategoryBrowser=On 2. edit php.ini: display_errors=On 3. apache2ctl restart 4. Error on every Article. --Schuelerlg 10:59, 3 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I have another problem. I see DMOZ-like list of cats in footer of every article and it's great, but I see also "standard-looking" list of cats. Two listings are too much. :) Can I turn off standard listing? --Lukas

@Lukas - You can clean this up with the following css:

 .catlinks hr, .catlinks br:first-of-type, .mw-normal-catlinks {
   display: none;
 }
